This is a follow-up for bug 22001. The patch "Bug 22001: Set unsafe only if RaiseError is not set" proved that unsafe => 1 and RaiseError => 0 was wrong. We should move forward and turn RaiseError for the UI, and... see what's happening. The change goes to the right direction, but we need to know how big is the task to have a stable release with these parameters correctly set.
Yes! I am 100% in favour of turning on RaiseError for the UI. For what it's worth, I don't think that it will be a huge drama. When running on openSUSE, we have turned on RaiseError on the staff interface for many years now, and while there is an occasional fatal software error, which I try to clean up and upstream, for the most part it's quite stable.

Plus, we could look at moving forward on Bug 26048, so that any errors in the UI are much more user friendly.
Note that Bug 26853 is an example where RaiseError would be really helpful because it would help surface edge cases that otherwise fail with silent errors.
It would be nice to have bug 26048 before we turn this on.

It works! [U+1F4A5][U+1F4A5][U+1F4A5] About comment 7 , in koha-testing-docker, I edited misc4dev/populate_db.pl and did reset_all, was that correct?

Is koha-misc4dev currently broken? Hum, good question. I did not spend much time on it, but we should not need it as we have the KOHA_DB_DO_NOT_RAISE_OR_PRINT_ERROR flag set. I will investigate a bit more and see if there is not something hidden behind it.
Created attachment 114136 [details] [review] Bug 25026: Use HandleError to not raise or print error DBIC has its own HandleError, and so it does not work to unset RaiseError or PrintError if unsafe is not set (what we don't want here). The idea of this patch is to overwrite the HandleError when we need it: Either if KOHA_DB_DO_NOT_RAISE_OR_PRINT_ERROR is set (misc4dev) Or if the installer is triggered (we don't want to explode if the DB does not exist). There is an additional trick, when the installer is completed, we want to restore the original behaviour, and so a disconnect is made. Note that during the installer we want to display eventual SQL errors, that's why we still display the errors.
The installer was broken! This follow-up should do it. We need to test `reset_all` and the install process. Also hit circ/pendingreserves.pl which should explode when the install is done (see the "trick" in the commit message) Now the change in misc4dev is: diff --git a/populate_db.pl b/populate_db.pl index 097bbda..563cb28 100755 --- a/populate_db.pl +++ b/populate_db.pl @@ -92,6 +92,8 @@ if ( $marcflavour ne 'MARC21' my $dbh = C4::Context->dbh; # At the beginning to die if DB does not exist. +my $HandleError = $dbh->{HandleError}; +$dbh->{HandleError} = sub { return 1 }; my ( $prefs_count ) = $dbh->selectrow_array(q|SELECT COUNT(*) FROM systempreferences|); my ( $patrons_count ) = $dbh->selectrow_array(q|SELECT COUNT(*) FROM borrowers|); if ( $prefs_count or $patrons_count ) { To hide the 2 errors that will be risen when the DB is empty.
I'm not sure about this change... Why don't we just set RaiseError and PrintError in Database.pm and then deal with localizations in install.pl and misc4dev? For example: "If you want to temporarily turn RaiseError off (inside a library function that is likely to fail, for example), the recommended way is like this:" https://metacpan.org/pod/DBI#RaiseError { local $h->{RaiseError}; # localize and turn off for this block ... } I'd prefer that ideally.
See the commit message, it does not work. It is what we are doing currently. Without unsafe, DBIC does not accept RaiseError turned off. Have a look at DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI->_connect for more information.

I've read through the commit messages and DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI->_connect but I still don't see why it's necessary. It sounds like perhaps more so an issue with populate_db.pl than Koha...
The problem also exists for the install, when the tables don't exist yet. I can try to explain again, it's as simple as: Without unsafe we cannot disable RaiseError (passing RaiseError => 0 to ->connect), because DBIC set its own HandleError (and will raise the error anyway, because it considers it's the right thing to do, unless you passed unsafe => 1). The idea of this patch is the remove this HandleError and ignore the error in both case: - KOHA_DB_DO_NOT_RAISE_OR_PRINT_ERROR is set (to not have errors *displayed* on reset_all, ie. misc4dev/do_all_you_can_do.pl) - we are hitting the installer for the first time I have not retested, but I don't think misc4dev could deal with the replacement of the HandleError, $dbh is init at compilation and that's why we have KOHA_DB_DO_NOT_RAISE_OR_PRINT_ERROR in the BEGIN block. Even if we could, I don't think we should drop KOHA_DB_DO_NOT_RAISE_OR_PRINT_ERROR's behaviour without deprecation notice.

I am not sure I understand exactly what you mean.

That's understandable too. It just makes it less pleasant to test here. Not the end of the world though.

I think that's a reasonable thing to do. I don't think so. It seems much more sensible to me to know it and do what's needed when the dbh is created. It's also following the current behaviour.

This is a positive change to move us in the right direction for catching errors. I'm sure there will be a little fallout, but I'm also confident fixes will come quickly. As such.. I'm happy to PQA on this.. it works as I expect and is a positive move in the right direction.
